PosiTest Manual Adhesion Tester by DeFelsko

POSITEST ADHESION TESTER by DeFelsko measures coating adhesion on many substrates. The PosiTest Manual Adhesion Tester has a heavy-duty Manual Hydraulic Pump designed to apply smooth and continuous Pull-Off Pressure with a single stroke. Pull-off pressure is displayed in psi or MPa on the PosiTest Adhesion Tester's digital indicator. PosiTest Manual AT features Self-Aligning Dollies and Pull-Rate Indicator for greater accuracy and conformance to international standards. PosiTest Manual Adhesion Tester now comes with rechargeable NiMh battery. In addition, both models of PosiTest Adhesion Testers are rated for water and dust ingress protection to IP 65.

PosiTest AT features an optional 50 mm Accessory Kit for lower bond-strength finishes including coatings on wood, concrete and plastic. For 0 - 500 psi range, the larger surface area of the dolly provides improved precision and repeatability.

POSITEST DIGITAL ADHESION TESTER FEATURES:

• Portable, hand-operated instrument requires no outside power source; ideal for lab or field use
• Large, easy to read Digital LCD
• LCD displays pressure value in psi or MPa
• Pull-Rate Indicator to easily monitor and manually adjust the rate of pull in accordance with international standards
• Internal Memory stores maximum pull-off pressure, rate of pull, test duration, and dolly size for up to 200 pulls.
• Easily select dolly sizes, change measurement units, or store readings with the touch of a button
• Automatic calculation of pressure based on dolly size; no conversion charts required
• self-aligning dolly enables accurate measurements on smooth or uneven surfaces
